"This has been another year of positive performance from our main businesses but sadly, also one in which we experienced two significant events that left sorrow in our hearts and minds; the passing away of Belmiro de Azevedo, my father and the leader and founder of Sonae Indústria; and the unfortunate tragedy in our two plants in Portugal due to the forest fires.

During 2017, Sonae Indústria consolidated and embraced its new dual corporate purpose: management of the strategic partnership at Sonae Arauco and management of its fully owned businesses, NorthAmerica and Laminates & Components.

Benefiting from an overall stronger economic background and resulting improved demand conditions, results were positive in both our main businesses and enabled Sonae Indústria to deliver a positive Net Result for the second consecutive year, improving on its 2016 consolidated performance."
